One of the main goals I have in life is to promote prevention especially for conditions that require minimal effort and yields enormous benefits. This is the case with functional orthotics.
Every person regardless of age benefits from correct alignment. However, small children in the forming years such as between the age of 3 to 10 benefit for life. At this age, the bones are not fully formed, most of the phases are opened and in the foot- the foundation that keeps the body frame erect - could be influenced. This was the drive behind the line of orthopedic shoes for children StepAlign.
